Cuckoo For Coco

A Poem by Gomer LePoet
"

short quatrain about blues guitarist - Coco Montoya

"

I'm Cuckoo for Coco


the chap from Santa Monica

with his weapon slung over his shoulder

working it over upside down

it was the way he learned how to hold her


blue bullets shot out to the crowd

he smoothly garnered their attention

they understood by the piercing sounds

and his bad boy gravel voiced intention


he had his good days and his bad days

but he has never let me down

left-handed back-handed super cool tones

he pulls out the tears but never lets me drown

That's good stuff brother. I have that "Never Give Up" pic on my cubicle at work. The poem was super smooth and bluesy just like Coco:)

David,
Never heard of Coco either,
I can actually understand the song, I have been there, I am there. This song actually made me cry because I know of why you posted this.
Yes, certainly does pull out the tears, Im hoping I dont drown
